Pithy Politics

Time for some good old civil disobedience?

The health care waivers granted to some 1,400 organizations so far represent “unequal protection of the law.” All organizations subject to the “mini-meds” programs should be given a blanket waiver. Since the program apparently only works with waivers, all should get them. And if you don’t get them, why not just act if you did? […]

Truth verses Ideology

Once again we see the left will say anything to advance their cause. The most recent example is the flat-out denial by Obama, Biden, and Secretary Clinton, that “waterboarding does not work.” Why do they say anything regardless of any facts? It is because they are at war with the American system, and that “all […]

Government doublespeak: inflation defined out of existence

The government thinks it can deceive the public with inflation doublespeak. It has defined inflation out of existence. The definition of inflation is “the rise of all prices.” In effect what it really means is the reduced value of the currency. When all prices go up, it means merely that the value of the currency […]

Perfect analogy from L. Brent Bozell: Super MariObama. Love it!

In fact it is a fictional ideal where there is “social justice.” But what is “social justice?” In the modern liberal philosophy, “social justice” has become a euphemism for “equal results for all.” But how can that possibly be fair? How can […]

Bigger Pie vs. Smaller Pie with more equal slices

A fundamental tenet of the radical left is redistribution of wealth. That is, carve up the pie so that the slices are more equal. The greater the equalization, the smaller the pie becomes, as only by punishing the creation of wealth can the slices be equalized. There is a limit to equalization, because men are […]

Let’s Push a New Approach: “Increased Tax Revenue from the Rich”

Every past “tax cut” in rates has produced a bonanza of economic activity during which the rich have in fact paid more taxes because their business increased. Why can’t we work this into a winning tactic? Instead of “tax increases” on the rich, let’s have “revenue increases” from the rich, which are enacted by business-friendly […]

The spine of a chocolate eclair

Republicans have plenty of guts when it does not count (“non-binding resolution having no chance in Senate”) but when it makes a difference, they have the spine of a chocolate eclair.

The ultimate Affirmative Action

The Sean Hannity interview of Donald Trump is a good summary of the “passes” that Barack Obama continually receives. Obama has numerous well-documented actions which are at best suspect and more probably actually illegal. Such as the Tony Rezko real-estate deal. Others have written at length on the subject of Obama’s corruption and crimes, as I […]
